Reviewer scorecard

Builder
80/100 · ship

End-to-end type safety with Eden treaty is the killer feature. Bun-native performance is excellent.

80/100 · ship

Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.

Skeptic
45/100 · skip

Bun-first means limited runtime flexibility. If Bun adoption stalls, Elysia is stranded. Hono is safer.

45/100 · skip

Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.

Futurist
80/100 · ship

Type-safe APIs without code generation is the right direction. Elysia's DX hints at what web frameworks should feel like.

80/100 · ship

The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.
